The Lorean was a lighthugger that was commissioned by the Sylveste clan to transport colonists and researchers to the planet Resurgam. Named after Lorean Sylveste, local Yellowstone folk hero and grandfather of Dan Sylveste, the vessel succeeded in seeding the colony in the Delta Pavonis system, but was eventually re-purposed by Alicia Keller Sylveste, Dan's third wife. Dan and the crew of the Infinity later used the husk of the Lorean as a weapon to penetrate Cerberus's surface defenses.
